Yukon Teapot and Lid
Object Details
- Artist
- Philip Cornelius, born San Bernardino, CA 1934-died 2015
- Luce Center Label
- Philip Cornelius feels that his thinware must be held to be appreciated, and the bumpy surface of Yukon Teapot certainly encourages that. The artist's pots appear fragile and delicate, but are actually quite durable because of the intense heat he uses to fire them.
